Platies are a versatile livebearer available in an enormous range of color forms Sunset, Mickey Mouse, Tuxedo, Blue Mirror, and more. They're hardy, peaceful, and breed easily, making them a good fit for community tanks of nearly any size.
Active and inquisitive, Platies move through all levels of the water column and tolerate a wide range of water conditions, which is part of why they work well for beginners and why breeders keep coming back to them.
